Love the groove on this one. You had me in your back pocket from the git-go.

Outstanding vocal. That sax lead fit perfectly. Super mix.

It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

Soul Soul Soul ..Brilliant song and the rhythm is all there I was gone.

Back to the ole soul ways of life.

The music to me sounded similar in style to an old program/ film called Shaft.

You have a great unique voice.

Lawrence,

Love that gravelly voice -you can sing anything, but its good to hear you get funky like this.
Personally I like the growly bass.
Lyrics have the attitude I`d expect to match the groove.
A cool song to make your reemergence here!

Ahh yes!! At last another gruve song for our fav playlist...woohoo!

We're not gonna parse it out...rather listen again.

Take a soul packed vocal, a great write, a cool arrangement and a great production...put it all together and you have a pro sounding radio/streaming platform ready sound. We can so easily hear this on the curated playlists we listen to daily on Apple Music.

Good as it gets and thanks for sharing it!!!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

This performance of yours is truly the stuff of inspiration. It rings with sincerity, commitment, raw honesty and competence. From start to end, the track sizzles!

All the best,
Noel
Noel, thank for your kind words. You are always very generous.
I'm glad to hear that the commitment comes through. On a song like this I think you have to really "go for it".

Nice arrangement and mix too too, lots of interest in the way you bring in the instruments and use the stereo spectrum, sounds fabulous through the 'phones.

Enjoyed the listen!

What a tune! I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Your vocal performance is top notch, and that funky groove is fantastic. Super catchy as well, and very well put together. All the instruments compliment one another perfectly and the mix is crisp and professional.

Great work and thanks for sharing smile

Great to have you back.

Outstanding vocals.
David, very high praise indeed. I love both of those artists. Thank you.

The sax ended up working much better than I thought it would when I first rendered it. And thank you Mario!
